Thats actually rather common with aftermarket 4x6's. I had a set of phoenix golds with the same problem.

Yes there are adaptor plates you can get to solve this. They can be found at pretty much and store that sells car audio.

I am sure crutchfield would have them as well.

Some 4x6's have a series of different holes on a larger bracket around the speaker than others.
